Risa VanDerAue of Farmington Hills
and her sister Rabbi Jennifer Kaluzny
of Temple Israel in West Bloomfield
write of the strength, compassion and
support from their mother, Yolanda
Tisdale of West Bloomfield.

A MOTHER'S LOVE

my sister and I both mourned the loss
of our daughters, her granddaughters,
she held us up, literally and figura-
tively, and somehow puts her grief to
good use, showing us how to be strong
in the face of the unthinkable.
"Somehow, our mom has enough
strength to carry our entire family. We
pray, in the future, she doesn't have to
rely on it quite as much:"

"Our mother, Yolanda, is so much
more than she appears. As mothers
ourselves, we now marvel at how our
mom managed to pick us up every day
from school, make dinner five nights
a week get us to all our activities and
make the warmest, most
welcoming Jewish home
you could imagine. All
that time, while leading
with her heart and keep-
ing her arms wide open,
she hid a strength that
amazes us every day.
Unfortunately, life would
force her to rely upon it
over and over.
"Risa was in a coma,
and our mom smoothed
her sheets, sung quietly
to her and still had the
energy to be a mother
to me. Our mom hid her Yolanda Tisdale with her daughters, Risa

Sara Seid of Franklin, a Hillel sixth-grader, wrote about her mom, Michelle
Seid, and the influence she has had on her

"My mother has always inspired me. She has influenced me, too. My mother
is the only person I can trust aside from my father!
"My mom is a registered nurse for labor and delivery, which made me think
about my future. When I was little, I just wanted to help people just like she
did. I go to my mom for absolutely everything. From math homework to school
issues, my mom is the one.
"When I see her, I see a happy, fun-loving, kind and caring person. My mom
makes time for her kids and husband. My mother (at least I'm pretty sure) is
Super Mom, doing chores and cooking and watching out for us. I don't know
how I could ever make it up to her.
"She has taught me so much about life and how to live it. She has given me the
finer things in life and all the love in the world. I am so proud and happy to call
her my mother. She is not just a mother but a friend and companion. Because
there is nothing like knowing that your mom is there for you with all of her love'
